KarlLeroy My name is Karl Leroy. I am 23 years old. I have two kids, a daughter and son and they are twins. They are both only 4 years old. We livein a little town, not many people live here so we know just about everyone
Week 1: Discuss why your nation is involved in WWI: "We are in this war for many reasons. We want to get revenge on Germany for taking our land from us and we want to get our respect back from all our people. We will control this land one day."
Write an article reacting to the assasination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand:
"On June 28, 1914 Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sophie were shot in Sarajevo. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand did not cause the war, it just triggered it. His assassination caused countries allied with Austria-Hungary and countries allied with Serbia to declare war against each other."
Week 2: Create a battle plan for your nation: "Our plan is to go get our land back. We will invade Germany and go through there. Some of us have machine guns and are trained to use them the others have their regular rifles."
Propaganda poster:

"I see these posters everywhere. Everyone thinks its so easy to come together as one, its not. Fighting for my country is what I'm going to do as long as i have to, no matter what." Write an article discussing how Russia's exit and the USA's entry into the war affected your nation's chance of winning:
"Russia exiting the war is not helping France at all. Especially since we are in an alliance. When the United States comes in the war, it will help a lot more."
Report on how soldiers from your nation spent Christmas during the war:
"I'm finally going home to see my kids and wife. I miss them so much. They've sent me letters but it will be so nice to feel them in my arms again. It's raining where i was, where I'm going, there's snow. I'm not going to miss the battlefield at all."
Discuss your personal feelings and what it was like to return home:
